The Greatest Man Alive
Chapter 438 The Actual Combat In the morning, Gussie was on her way to Forest Park and happened to meet Natalie.
Natalie was running vigorously in sportswear with steady breaths and an energetic look.
âNatalie, you are doing morning exercises again! You have persevered for so long!â Gussie said in surp rise.
âYeah, good morning, Gussie. Youâre still practicing with Nathan?â Natalie was also surprised and smile d at her.
Both of them stopped at the same time, talking while walking.
Gussie complained to Natalie about the strenuous process of practicing martial arts. Now she was forc ed by Nathan to do extra practice every day after work, which was a painful experience.
Natalie glanced at her bruised fingers and couldnât help but admire her. It was not easy to persevere in
such tormenting practice.
Her life was not easy, too. She got up at four oâclock and worked from dawn to dusk every day.
After work, she also took time to learn various skills.
If it werenât for the good care of her parents, she would have died suddenly from exhaustion.
âCheer up, letâs go shopping together and relax someday!â Natalie smiled at Gussie and said.
âOkay!â Gussie agreed with alacrity, and the two parted at a fork in the road.
Gussie thought, âI have to work harder. Natalie wakes up so early for morning exercises and persists for so long. I canât give up!â
When she ran to Forest Park, Julian hadnât arrived yet. She saw Nathan squatting while rubbing the bal l in his hand constantly..
âHold it!â Nathan suddenly turned around and threw the ball over.
The ball was light at first glance, but when she heard the rattling sound it made when flitting through the air, she knew that it must be heavy. With her expression changed, she exerted all her strength and squatted to take it in a hurry.
She was taken aback as soon as the ball fell into her hands. It almost brought her whole body to the gr ound with its weight!
âWhatâs in it? Itâs so heavy!â Gussie asked while holding the ball with difficulty.
This ball probably weighed 30 or 35 kilograms.
At the same time, she was also secretly surprised that her strength had grown so fast that she was abl e to hold such a heavy ball!
Nathan said, âIt is made of lead and is very heavy. Moreover, it tends to dangle around and is hard to c ontrol. Iâll teach you how to play it in a few days!â
Gussieâs heart sank at hearing his words. She didnât want to play this ball. If she had to play it for a few
minutes as Nathan did just now, she would not be able to lift her arms in a few days.
âToday you hold this while squatting,â Nathan said calmly..
Gussie agreed with a bitter smile, holding the big ball and squatting obediently.
She had just squatted for two minutes when Julian arrived. He was soon ready to practice under Natha nâs guidance.
After they finished the squat, it was time to practice the Wuxing Fists. Nathan instructed the two of the m on the posture and the angle and strength of the punches.
Two hours of practice were finished, and the sky was already getting a little bright.
âThatâs the end of todayâs training. Gussie, come to me after work in the afternoon.â Nathan said.
Julian said with a sullen face, âMaster, when can I do extra practice?â
Nathan said, âOnce you have mastered the foundation of the threeâ
body pose and the Wuxing Fists, you can practice other gestures. But, your comprehension is too poor, and I think you might as well quit the training.â
Julian didnât dare to retort and kept saying that he would work hard and live up to Nathanâs expectation.
Nathan treated Julian and Gussie to dumplings for breakfast at the restaurant at the entrance of Forest
Park. The dumplings here were delicious, with thin skin and juicy meat inside.
âHey, you guys, let me go.â While the three of them were eating, a few hooligans reeking of alcohol ca me over, probably after drinking all night.
Nathan didnât budge, eating dumplings with his head down and saying to his two students, âEat more if you practice more.
Without eating enough food, you wonât have the strength to practice.â
Gussie and Julian didnât disdain to deal with a few hooligans inferior to them in social status and kept th eir heads down to eat.
âHahâhah, you guys, Iâll prepare another table for you. Thereâs no need to occupy othersâ tables.â The manager ran over and greeted them with a smile.
âWe want this table, not others.â A hooligan blurted out.
Nathan said to Gussie, âDo you dare to fight them?â
Gussie was a little timid, and her face turned pale.
Nathan widened his eyes and said, âIf you dare not stand out, I will give you Lightning Whips. A worthless coward!â
Gussie gritted her teeth, stood up at once, and said to the provocative hooligans boldly, âIf you want to
eat, just get out of our way and donât bother us!â
âHey, you are a beautiful girl with an ill temper! How dare you talk to us like this?â A hooligan smiled an d raised his hand to pinch Gussieâs face.
Gussie squatted down without hesitation, which dissipated most of her fear away.
She looked at the outstretched hand and felt that her adversaryâs movement was very slow. She raised her left and
index webs.
Before her adversary could react, Gussie twisted his forearms with a tilt of her spine.
âCrack!â
There was a loud sound, and the hooligan fell down screaming and clutching his arms. When seen close twisted backward, looking like a helix.
Julian said, âIs this Crocodile Tail?â
Nathan nodded his head. He could tear off both arms of a person with the move âCrocodile Tail,â but Gu Seeing this, the other hooligans couldnât help being furious and pounced upon her one after another.
Besieged by so many people, Gussie couldnât help feeling flustered. She turned her head and glanced a subconsciously.
Seeing the impatience on Nathanâs face, she immediately became more nervous.
A fist was delivered towards her nose, and Gussie subconsciously took a step forward with her right han and grabbed the fist firmly.
Immediately afterward, another fist was delivered from the other side. She covered her cheek with her left hand and raised her elbow. W on and hit the hooligan in front of her on the chin!
With considerable strength, Gussie knocked the hooligan half a meter off the ground with his jaw broken, and he fell into a coma on the spot.
After she knocked down two people in a row, Gussieâs confidence improved tremendously, and the fear away.
Faced with the attack from two sides, she immediately leaped more than one meter with âmonkey squat Due to the distance and her lack of experience, she raised her elbow too early and left the target hooliga Gussieâs elbows were thrust at the hooliganâs hands, causing his body to stagger.
However, an idea flashed in her mind. She slackened her forearm like a soft whip and flicked it with a snap, and her hand hit the hooliganâs crotch heavily.
